  Welcome to my auction. This is a nice 1963 Thunderbird Hardtop Coupe avaliable for your consideration.


This Classic is 50 years old and one of the most popular of the "Bullet Birds" or "Rocket Birds" Generation.
The car has been garaged for 8 years. I ocassionally do start it up. It does drive but like with any old classic there is always something that may need attention.
It is not perfect so if your looking for a trailer queen or perfection then this car is not for you but if your looking for a great start on a Restore as you drive piece then please think about this vehicle.

Has a 390 cubic inch engine (standard for thunderbird) 300 HP with a 4 bbl carburator. engine does run and drives.
Transmission is an automatic that operates good.
 Power steering, power brakes, and power seat. (all works) Manual windows (an option back then on thunderbirds) and NO air conditioning.
Mileage shows 41,422 but I am sure given the age of the vehicle its probablly 141,422 miles.

Interior is very nice and comfortable to cruise around in. 
The exterior has an older paint job on it and will eventually need to be redone. The outside chrome is very nice except above the front bumper it will need to be rechromed due to age. NO major dents or body damage that I can see. Car does come and included the Fender Skirts.
The trunk is clean and solid but will need the trunk mat set that can be bought from any thunderbird parts catalog.
Tires are very good and the hub caps are all there.
The rear tail light bezel (inner chrome rings) is currently a 1962 set and was on the car when I purchased it. it wasn't until afterwards I found its the wrong year inner chrome rings. A correct set can be purchased from any thunderbird catalog.

 As I mentioned this is a driver that can be restored over time to your perfection. it is nearly 98% complete in my opinion. You won't find too many 1963 Thunderbirds in this color combination. Most are usually red, white, or black.
The car is according to my knowledge is the correct color (cascade green) with two tone green interior. According to the gentleman I purchased the car from is a numbers matching Vehicle.

Please take a look at the pictures. if you have any questions I encourage you to ask before purchasing. This car is sold in "AS IS CONDITION." The description and any information on the vehicle is to the best of my knowledge.
Please remember this is a 50 year old car it is not a musuem piece and not perfect by any means. If you want a fun car to drive, enjoy , and restore this is a great opportunity.

DO NOT ask me for my reserve price. I want to be fair to all bidders.

Buyers are responsible for any and all cost and arrangements for pickup and or transport. I will accomodate you the best I can when its time to pickup your vehicle.
Payment is a NON refundable deposit of $500.00 via paypal within 24 hours of auction end. Remaining balance can paid for through paypal or Certified Bank Cashiers Check due within 3 days of auction end. All Funds MUST CLEAR before vehicle will be released.
Car can be held in storage for up to 30 days FREE from the date of auction end. After 30 days there will be a $4.00 per day fee asessed and must be paid upon pickup of vehicle.

Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags

Wed, Jun 1 2016

The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer. If you'd like to check if your vehicle is affected, click on the safety recalls link on Ford.com and enter your VIN. Related Video:

Ford rolls out diesel Focus ST at Goodwood [w/poll]

Sun, 29 Jun 2014

If you're in the market for a hot hatch, there are some excellent choices at your disposal - especially if you live in Europe. But if you want a diesel, well, your choices become rather more limited. Volkswagen tends to that niche market with the Golf GTD (essentially an oil-burning version of the GTI available Stateside), but that's about the extent of it. The pleas of those looking for more diesel-burning hot hatch choices haven't fallen on deaf ears at Ford, with the Blue Oval not only rolling out a facelifted gas-powered Focus ST at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, but also a new diesel version as well.
The diesel Focus ST (which we hope and pray isn't marketed as the STD) packs a 2.0-liter turbodiesel four producing 182 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque to propel the oil-burning hot hatch to 62 in 8.1 seconds en route to a top speed of 135 miles per hour. With less power and only slightly more torque, that makes the diesel Focus ST considerably slower than the gasoline one, which packs 252 hp and 270 lb-ft, runs to 62 in 6.5 seconds and tops out at 154 mph, but (in a testament to how far particulate filters have come) the diesel model cuts carbon emissions by nearly a third compared to the petrol version and returns about 50-percent better fuel economy, which makes that much more of a difference in markets where diesel is already priced better than gasoline at the pump.
For buyers who wouldn't consider anything other than a diesel, it also represents 23-percent more power than the previous top-level diesel Focus. The VW Golf GTD, for reference, offers up 181 hp (just 1 horse less), 280 lb-ft (15 fewer torques) but is somehow estimated to reach 60 in a considerably fleeter 7.4 seconds.
